#24 Living on Campsite in UK all year round... Whats it really like?

Does anyone live in a caravan on a campsite? We do! Today I will share 5 facts about living on a caravanning site or a campsite and each of them has two sides and two aspects and could be either a blessing or a curse, it all depends on your perception. The first fact of permanent living on campsite is that you don't live on your own land and even on your private pitch you still have to respect the site rules and wishes of the owners. You cannot do as you please, and you are a tenant and not a landlord. So, yes, you have to ask for permission to do stuff sometimes, but on the other hand you are not responsible for maintaining the site, paying bills and taxes, for example costs of emptying a septic tax or pay business rates. Each site has different customs and culture and rules and it is a microcosms shaped by the owners. There are quite a few rules to respect on the site where I live, but thanks to them the site is peaceful and wildlife is protected, which is really important for me. The other thing is that you share site facilities on site with others. So if you cannot stand sharing a bathroom, washing machines and even books with other campers living in caravan or a camping trailer or a grand rv, in longer term may be a bit challenging. Of course in a modern rv living you will have all these facilities in your motorhome or a camping trailer, but I choose to use shared facilities for convenience. What about you? Would you share or maybe not? The upside of sharing the facilities is that it is not you who cleans and maintains them. For me it is a fact of rv life whether static or on tour. On our rv campsite, there are clothes dryer, an iron and even an ironing board. We also have an onsite bar with drinks on tap and a big pool table and even a book swap. Our camping is situated in a beautiful area, and I couldn't afford living here in any other way. This part of Devon is ideal for caravanning uk, and many people choose to have a seasonal, all year long pitch on site. That means that we have neighbours and we know them well. It is lovely, however some people staying on site are not that great. Many people come camping stressed and exhausted after a long drive and sometimes cause a bit of trouble, make too much noise or leave litter on our beautiful grass. However caravanning brings the best out of people too, and most of campers are super friendly and smile and greet me a few times a day. You may choose to have a caravan either for touring or keep on a permanent pitch to enjoy being immersed in nature, like we are. Nature on your doorstep is generally a blessing, but there are some downsides, as rodents and bugs like to move into our awning or a caravan sometimes. Some of you may have seen videos from winter showing how we battled with storms and even had to sleep in a pub a few times. So nature can be brutal, but on the other hand gives us space to relax and enjoy exercise and good times. I hope you enjoy my full time caravan tips, to me caravanning full time has both pros and cons, but in a final balance I see much more pros. To be honest I cannot imagine returning to a 'normal' life outside. Pros and cons, also touch your social and family life as when you lead a full time van life, often or often you are away from you family and friends and maybe a hometown or maybe a home country. Other downside of my caravan life in a travel trailer, we live about two hours drive from our home and family and friends and sometimes it does make me a bit homesick, even though my home now is our camping trailer. When you live in a caravan full time you may experience it. You may enjoy being away from your family for some time, but sooner or later you will miss them So my tip would be do not move too far away, built new contacts and make new friends, but do not neglect old contacts. We get on with everyone on site here, both the site owners and staff as everyone is in the same boat really, away from home. So things I discussed will be experience by everyone who does full time travel whether in a campervan or a caravan. Perhaps it will give you some insights into how to caravan full time in a travel trailer to enjoy your travel trailer living. We love caravaning and our tiny house, and embrace living in a van.
